Senators vs Oilers Pick – Friday, March 12th

Senators vs Oilers Pick – Friday, March 12th: The Ottawa Senators received a rude wake-up call in their 7-1 defeat here two nights ago. They were down 4-0 before 14 minutes had been played. Sens coach DJ Smith will be all over these guys. “Everyone hates losing,” Senators winger Brady Tkachuk said. “But to get blown out like that … it’s infuriating.” This is the final game of a six-game road trip, and I can promise you this – they will come out flying. Colin White and Ryan Dzingel each got hurt during the game, and it looks like they may be good to go here. Their best defensemen Tomas Chabot, looked awful and was a -3. He Chabot the bed.

Draisaitl and McDavid completely dominated. Draisaitl went for 3 goals and 2 assists, while McDavid had a goal and 2 helpers. They completely emasculated this Senators team. DJ Smith won’t take this mildly. He’s going to be all over these guys. He will be in their faces. I expect them to come out with a lot of passion and a lot of fight early. I will be on the Senators 1st period. I haven’t made the bet yet because I expect I can get a better line. I may also wuss out and take the Senators first 10 minutes. Draisaitl and McDavid are spectacular, world-class players but the rest of the team leaves a lot to be desired. The forward group after the two stars is very weak. The defense is one of the worst groups in the league. They feel good about themselves after the last win, and the Senators are questioning everything. That’s what happens when you take it in the prison pocket on National television.
